Game of Thrones
Holy Shit
SPOILERS
I havent read any of the books, specifically so i can watch the show without knowing whats going to happen. Which is hard because i really want to read the books. Anyway i didn't see that coming at all and i really didn't expect it to be so damn horrific. But that's one reason why i love this show. You never know what's going to happen, unless you've read the books of course. My only worry now though is, without Robb, Catelyn, and the rest of the Stark Rebellion there really isn't any opposition for The Lannisters. Sure they still have enemies but only people who are just as evil as they are. I'm not saying i need a hero to root for, obviously i like villains but you can't have a villain without a hero and vice versa. We still have Jon Snow, Bran and Arya from the Stark Family (Let's face it, Sansa's never going to do anything) but they are lost and on their own and dealing with their own problems. They're not gearing up to go against the Lannisters. We also have Dany but she's on the other side of the world and nothing she does connects with the rest of the show. It's like i'm watching two shows. Game of Thrones and Adventures with Khaleesi. Anyway without a major opposition for the main antagonists, i'm worried that something will be lacking. But i was worried after Ned died too so what do i know. This episode was also particularly hard for me to deal with because my girlfriend is pregnant but the last ultrasound they did, they couldn't find a heartbeat and we had to wait a week until today to get another one so for an entire week we were terrified that it would turn out bad. So watching a pregnant woman getting repeatedly stabbed in the stomach did a number on me. Just to add, they located the heartbeat during the ultrasound today and everything turned out fine.
